Christmas is a week away. Majority of Japanese are not Christian but
in this season you will see Christmas decoration and illumination
everywhere. Christmas is a kind of festival based on commercial event
in Japan. People celebrate Christmas Eve by eating a "Christmas Cake"
and exchange
Christmas presents. It seems strange for foreign people.

6. Buy & Sell

We contacted the owner and buyer and arranged negotiations , however,
they could not reach agreement. We haven't got any successful
negotiation recently. the reason might be that the owners changed
their mind to keep their items and the buyers changed their mind to
buy other items in the process of negotiating .


If you have any items to sell or buy, please e-mail to
